Ever just want to tear your hair out, or someone else's? If you cannot restore a sense of balance, you will run away from home? Just want to say some things without the constraints of staying on topic? Well, this thread is for you! If you just need a short break to let it all hang out, be a brat, then come on, you can do it. No holding back! Go for it, you can do it.
The small pot-bound pine tree needed some support from the high Santa Ana winds.
He did nothing.
So I tied it to the tree and the porch, creating a very flexible tie that will allow movement without cutting the tree bark.
This was so much better than cutting elastic out of his old underwear. It looks better, too!
Gee, I hope it was not too expensive......
Calling this stunt the 'theraband hack'.
And, thank you Ali, for being so gracious to root for the Dodgers!
Cubs and Dodgers at Wrigley field?
Missed the t.v. series: "The Good Doctor" on Monday. Something that I will be watching because Dr. Shawn Murphy has autism. My tech dH will find it somehow.
John Cleese - Monty Python - on the tonight show
He's 77 and wicked funny
Sunday here was nice and restful.
Have a better week caregivers.
Caregivers are people too, right?

I like joining in the French one before rugby matches - especially the last line, about 'we will march until their foul blood overflows our gutters.' Charming!
"MapleLeafs (Canadian Hockey team) fans finish singing the U.S. National Anthem after technical difficulties...)."
Apparently, not the only time this has happened at sports events. I am in awe!
Opposing team sings out our national anthem....while our players take a knee.
After all, they are playing in my home town area...
GO DODGERS!
MsMadge,
Were you doubting my loyalty? Dodger-dogs are best!
See the cubbies in LA Saturday
Congrats on the win, and on feeling better.
He answers: "Christina P, they just gave her name at the start!"
I answer, "I can't remember back that far".
He answers: "It was just now up on the screen!"
I answer, "I can't see that good anymore"
You woulda have had to been here, still laughing!
One of those #$%*&@ Microsoft scammers called my cell phone with a number to call back... These are those groups from, shall we say, overseas, who call and tell you there's something wrong with your computer, or they need to give you a Microsoft update/refund/whatever crappy excuse they can come up with to get you to call them back. Then they either get access to your computer, bank account (to wire you the refund, of course!) or whatever info they can pry from you. They prey on the elderly and the uninformed, and they're terrible!
Anyhow, I called the number back, cuz I'm pissed that they somehow got my cell number, and just to mess with them and tell them I don't appreciate that they're scammers. (They immediately start cussing at you when you confront them, by the way. I don't think Microsoft does that, lol...)
But, as I hung up, I had the thought, maybe I should let them talk to my father-in-law with dementia? There's no danger, he doesn't have access to his computer or any money to give them, but he HATES solicitors. I mean, hates them with a passion. Yells at anyone who calls. Just the THOUGHT of those scammers having to deal with my FIL makes me smile: Who's calling?!? What do you want??!! WHY ARE YOU CALLING ME??? I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU'RE CALLING ME!!!! WHERE DID YOU GET MY NUMBER??!!!!
LOL!! Now obviously, I'm NOT going to let FIL talk to them, because it would honestly be mean to get him riled up like that. But, oh the thought.... ;)
Had an interview this afternoon for an audio tech manufacturing company. I'd like the job. It doesn't pay great but audio tech was my major in college and I like the industry. I think the interview went ok. It wasn't outstanding. It's been a tough day in a lot of ways... but the CUBS WON... and so I'm happy. :-D
The beer?
The hockey team?
